Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

7 pounds (about half of a bone-in) cured smoked ham, (butt end), room temperature
2 cups apricot jam
1/4 cup mustard powder
Butter for aluminum foil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in lowest position. Line a large roasting pan with aluminum foil; place roasting rack in pan.
  • With a sharp knife, trim fat, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick layer. Lightly score fat in a diamond pattern (do not cut into meat). Place ham, fat side up, on rack; roast 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine jam and mustard (they can be mixed and refrigerated up to 1 day ahead). Transfer 1/2 cup mixture to a small bowl to glaze ham. Set aside saucepan with remaining mixture.
  • After 1 hour, brush ham with glaze. Repeat every 15 minutes until brown and shiny, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part, avoiding bone, registers 130 degrees, about 1 hour more (if glaze starts to burn, tent ham with buttered foil). Discard unused glaze. Remove ham from oven; cover loosely with buttered foil to keep warm. Temperature will then rise another 5 to 10 degrees.
  • Bring jam mixture in saucepan to a boil. Carve ham, reserving bone and 2 cups of meat for Split Pea Soup. Serve with sauce.

Tips:

  • To ensure the ham is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The ham is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the ham's doneness by inserting a fork into the thickest part of the ham. If the juices run clear, the ham is cooked.
  • Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the ham, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the ham with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
